I don't know what's the business point of reviving a legendary bad series, it reminds me of the Shaq Fu kickstarter scam a few years back. And I know the first game was actually "kind of" alright but only compared to other textbook platformers of the time. It has no value today.

Yo should I get a CRT TV to play these? Im playing on an emulator now, am I missing out on some shit?

I played them all on emulator, had a ball. Such good games.

Especially those games will bug quite hard when not played on CRT. You should at least use ZSNES, since it's the most accurate emulator out there.

Plug nintento to it, launch your favorite lewd fighting game for weeaboos, fap furiously to pixelated female characters and drop your load on the shiny CRT screen.

I use http://www.zeldaeurope.de/galerie/

Best Zelda scan gallery on the internet. But I only play Zelda games.

I wish somebody would do this for Metroid.

Nicely done.
I made a pong game in C++ once.
This seems like it was probably infinitely harder.

Updating my retro rig and I was wondering why everyone always says to use a CRT instead of a modern TV. is this just because of nostalgia or is there a technical reason?

One of variety of rare things I own, no clue what is the rarest.

Prototype cartridge of Attack Animal Gakuen. No clue what it was used for (preview/review, demo, development, etc), but it lacks any sort of title label on the cart beyond the stickers numbering the ROMs.

This shit right here is the opposite of fun

The original graphics are way more fun, I agree.
>>
>>2808915
At least they give the option to revert to those at will. Can't say the same for most HD remakes.
>>
That whole game is opposite of fun.
I adore the first Monkey island, but 2 is such a piece of shit. Almost all of the damn puzzles are illogical as fuck and nigh impossible to solve without a guide.

ITT areas/locations you always remember for one reason or another.

I thought it was a roller coaster track when I was a kid and there was a roller coaster heading into the reactor.

I'll remember this entire game for the rest of my life even if I stop replaying it every other year.
Also, this particular screen always resonated with me emotionally for some reason.
Fuck this game is so beautiful aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

i can hear that music still, i remember i was too poor to afford the game but i had an Eidos demo disc that just included basically this "section" from the beginning when they come across that Shinra tower thing thats on the cover up to the gold saucer. For years I wanted that game so bad, I never knew how expansive it was, i figured this was near the beginning. I leveled up Cloud and Barretts limit break too by mistake once from overplaying it and was blown away. So much mystery so much potential that was to be. I bought the game used for playstation years later to emulate on my pc so I could finally play it. That game blew me away even, 6 or 7 years after its release. It gets a lot of hate but this game is probably the top gaming experience in my whole life. Sorry for the rant, todays been a long day introspective day.

What was the best Mega Man X game? When did the series die?
103 posts and 14 images submitted.
>>
>>2800859
>>2800881
Well, X5 and X6 are at least playable.

X7 was the absolute obliteration of the series. X8 was... OK, but literally anything would've looked like gold next to X7.

That being said, I think X4 was the last really good X game.
>>
>>2800884
>>2800881
X5 had a shit story but the levels/gameplay was just as good as X4. I liked X5 just because it was fun to play. I personally think the series died when X got that shitty ass falcon suit.
>>
>>2800859
X1.

It never really died, although the quality was spotty at multiple points in the series' lifespan. X3 was boring shit, X5 was mediocre, X6 was rushed shit, and X7 was utter shit.

OK, /vr/, can you guys help a fellow anon out for a second?

This game, Ripper, has a faulty 3rd CD iso that results in a crash every time you try to enter a secret lab.

I went to some sketchy website hosted in Bratislava where someone else posted that they had this problem, where I learned two things:

1. Bratislava is an actual place where people actually live and not something Euro Trip made up.
2. The 3rd CD iso that's been around for who the fuck knows how long is what's causing the crash, and some dude uploaded it to said sketchy Bratislavian website and put it behind a paywall.

Does anyone have an actual physical copy of the 3rd CD they can rip?

Please note, this game is Ripper, not Jack the Ripper, not Jack the Ripper vs Sherlock Holmes, Mind Ripper, or, as google seems to think, Crash Bandicoot.

Just download from iso zone.
>>
>>2818278
As I said, the iso that is currently widely distributed is fucked.
>>
>>2818341
That may or may not work, but I only need the 3rd CD and that entire download is apparently going to take 10 days.

Man I want to get both of these bundles but first one doesn't have HD rereleases and second one is expensive for a bunch of games that look poorly aged.

Also are any of those Star Trek games good?
